Examples
Referring to fig. 1, 2 and 3, fig. 1 and 2 are schematic perspective views of an autonomous moving apparatus according to the present invention, and fig. 3 is a system schematic view of a power adjustment system of the autonomous moving apparatus according to the present invention. An embodiment of the present invention provides an Autonomous moving apparatus Z, which may be, for example, an Autonomous Mobile Robot (AMR) or an Autonomous Guided Vehicle (AGV). The autonomous moving apparatus Z includes: two driving modules 1, an inertia measuring module 2, a navigation module 3, a database module 4 and a control module 5. The two driving modules 1, the inertia measurement module 2, the database module 4 and the control module 5 are arranged in the autonomous mobile device Z, and the navigation module 3 is arranged on the autonomous mobile device Z. The control module 5 is electrically connected to the two driving modules 1, the inertia measurement module 2, the navigation module 3 and the database module 4. The two drive modules 1 are connected to two wheels 13 of the autonomous moving apparatus Z, respectively. Two wheels 13 of the autonomous moving apparatus Z are provided at the bottom of the autonomous moving apparatus Z. In the present embodiment, two driving modules 1 operate independently, each driving module 1 includes a driver 11 and a motor 12 electrically connected to the driver 11, and each motor 12 is connected to a corresponding wheel 13. Further, the driver 11 of the driving module 1 can be connected to a power module 6, and the control module 5 can be electrically connected between the driver 11 and the power module 6. The power module 6 provides power to the motor 12 through the driver 11, and the driver 11 can convert a constant voltage from an ac power provided by the power module 6 into a variable voltage capable of controlling the torque and the rotation speed of the motor 12.
Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a schematic oblique view of the autonomous moving apparatus of the present invention. For example, the inertial measurement module 2 may be composed of a plurality of acceleration sensing components (mainly measuring the linear acceleration of the movement direction of the autonomous mobile device) and a plurality of gyroscopes (mainly measuring the angular velocity of the movement direction of the autonomous mobile device), so that the attitude of the autonomous mobile device Z can be further calculated. To detect the tilt angle θ 1 of the autonomous moving apparatus Z. If the autonomous moving apparatus Z is located on a slope surface P, the inertia measurement module 2 can measure that the autonomous moving apparatus Z is in an inclined state, that is, the vehicle body of the autonomous moving apparatus Z is at an inclination angle θ 1 with respect to the horizontal ground, so that the inertia measurement module 2 can detect the inclination angle θ 1 from the autonomous moving apparatus Z, and the inclination angle θ 1 is equal to the slope angle of the slope surface P, which represents the slope of the slope surface P. In addition, the autonomous moving apparatus Z may further include a speed sensing device (not shown), such as a magnetic induction type shaft rotation speed sensing device, coupled to the motor 12 for connecting to an output shaft (not shown) of the wheel 13 and detecting a rotation speed of the output shaft, and the control module 5 receives a sensing signal output by the speed sensing device to calculate the speed of the autonomous moving apparatus Z.

The navigation module 3 includes an optical radar (LiDAR) 31, an ultrasonic sensor 32, or an image capturing component 33, for example, the autonomous mobile device Z can perform light reflection navigation positioning through the optical radar 31; alternatively, the autonomous mobile device Z may perform ultrasonic navigation positioning by the ultrasonic sensor 32; alternatively, the autonomous mobile device Z may be visually navigated by the image capturing component 33 (including but not limited to a camera or a CCD image sensor). Further, in the embodiment of the present invention, the navigation module 3 may locate the position of the autonomous mobile apparatus Z in real time, construct a map of the surrounding environment of the position of the autonomous mobile apparatus Z, and plan a travel route according to the map, so that the autonomous mobile apparatus Z travels according to the travel route. In addition, when the autonomous moving device Z travels according to the travel route, the control module 5 may acquire the steering angle θ 2 of the autonomous moving device Z during travel.
The Control module 5 is a Vehicle Control Unit (VCU) disposed inside the autonomous mobile apparatus Z for receiving various sensing signals output by various sensing components inside the autonomous mobile apparatus Z. For example, the control module 5 is electrically connected to the two driving modules 1, the inertia measurement module 2, the navigation module 3 and the database module 4, so as to transmit signals with the driving modules 1, the inertia measurement module 2 and the navigation module 3, to collect information such as current variation, tilt angle and steering angle, and further to read and analyze the signals and output corresponding control signals to the related components to command the related components to perform corresponding actions.
Referring to fig. 6, fig. 6 is a schematic view illustrating a weight estimation process of the power adjustment system of the autonomous moving apparatus according to the present invention. Next, the weight estimation mechanism of the power adjustment system of the autonomous moving apparatus of the present invention is further described. First, the control module 5 may detect the current value outputted by the power module 6 and transmitted to the motor 12 via the driver 11 to detect whether the starting state of the autonomous moving apparatus Z is in the static state. Next, the inertial measurement module 2 detects the gradient of the position of the autonomous mobile device Z to obtain an inclination angle θ 1, and the control unit 4 collects the inclination angle θ 1 and stores it in the database module 4. Then, the control module 5 further detects the current variation output by each driver 11 in the nth second, when the current variation output by each driver 11 in the nth second exceeds half of the maximum current amount that each driver 11 can output, the control module 5 is configured to collect the current value in the nth second, and when the current variation output by each driver 11 lasts for k seconds (k =1 in this embodiment) and the variation range in k seconds is less than 10% of the current variation in the nth second, the control module 5 is configured to collect the speed of the autonomous moving device Z in the n + k seconds, and the control module 5 compares the speed of the autonomous moving device Z in the n + k seconds, the current variation output by the driver 11 in the nth second, and the gradient of the position where the autonomous moving device Z is located with the data in the database module 4 to estimate the weight of the autonomous moving device Z.
It is to be noted that the database module 4 may be a storage device, such as a hard disk or a memory, etc., provided in the autonomous mobile device Z, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The database module 4 may also be a remote server, in signal communication with the autonomous mobile means Z via a network connection. In this embodiment, the database module 4 stores different weight values of the autonomous mobile device Z, and it should be noted that the weight of the autonomous mobile device Z includes the own weight and the carrying weight of the autonomous mobile device Z. In addition, the database module 4 stores different weight values of the autonomous mobile device Z, and also includes a gradient of a position where the autonomous mobile device Z is located, a current variation amount output by the driver 11, and a speed of the autonomous mobile device Z. Further, the data stored in the database module 4 is constructed as a database, and mainly includes a corresponding relation table between parameters obtained through a plurality of in-situ tests, which represents the weight of the autonomous moving device Z corresponding to different conditions of the slope (i.e., the inclination angle) of the autonomous moving device Z at different positions, the amount of change in the current output by the driver 11 at different times, and different speeds. In other words, the database is an aggregate of a group of related data (the gradient of the location of the autonomous mobile device Z, the amount of change in the current output by the driver 11 at different times, the different speeds of the autonomous mobile device Z, and the weight of the autonomous mobile device Z), so that the control module 5 can obtain the required result by searching, sorting, calculating, querying, and the like.
Referring to fig. 7, fig. 7 is a vehicle weight estimation representation of the power adjustment system of the autonomous moving apparatus according to the present invention, which shows one embodiment of the correspondence table stored in the database module 4, and mainly represents speed information corresponding to the weights (vehicle weight 300kg, 500kg, 700 kg) of different autonomous moving apparatuses Z at different slopes (inclination angle θ 1 is 0 degrees, 5 degrees, 10 degrees, and 15 degrees) under the condition that the current variation amount output by the driver 11 is 100% and lasts for one second (k = 1). For example, if the vehicle speed measured by the control module 5 under the condition that the inclination angle θ 1 is 0 degrees and the amount of current change output by the driver 11 is 100% for one second is 5.23m/s, i.e., 18.8KPH (km/hr), the estimated vehicle weight is 300kg according to the vehicle weight estimation table. However, the above-mentioned examples are only one possible embodiment and are not intended to limit the present invention.
Referring to fig. 8, fig. 8 is a schematic diagram illustrating steps S1 to S5 of the power adjustment method of the autonomous moving apparatus according to the present invention, which can be implemented by the power adjustment system of the autonomous moving apparatus Z disclosed above. The power adjusting method at least comprises the following steps:
step S1: two first current control signals output by the control module 5 are respectively transmitted to the two drivers, so that the two drivers 11 respectively output two initial currents to the two motors 12, and the two motors 12 respectively drive the two wheels 13 to push the autonomous moving device Z to run;
step S2: detecting an inclination angle theta 1 of the autonomous moving device Z through an inertia measurement module 2;
and step S3: a traveling route is planned through the navigation module 3, so that the autonomous moving device Z travels according to the traveling route, and the control module 5 is used for acquiring a steering angle theta 2 of the autonomous moving device Z in the traveling process;
and step S4: estimating the weight of the autonomous mobile device Z by the control module 5 according to the different weight values of the autonomous mobile device Z stored in the database module 4;
step S5: the control module 5 outputs two second current control signals according to the two first current control signals, the weight of the autonomous moving device Z, the steering angle θ 2 and the inclination angle θ 1 to be respectively transmitted to the two drivers 11, and the two drivers 11 respectively output two adjusting currents to the two motors 12, so that the two motors 12 respectively drive the two wheels 13 to perform differential speed control.
In view of the above, the control module 5 outputs the second current control signal after adjusting the first current control signal according to a signal gain function, where the signal gain function is:
L2=L1×(W/W 0 )×(1±tan(θ1))×(1±tan(θ2));
wherein L1 is a first current control signal, L2 is a second current control signal, W is the weight of the autonomous moving apparatus 0 For the preset reference weight of the autonomous moving means Z (in this embodiment W) 0 =500kg),(W/W 0 ) For the weight factor, θ 1 is the inclination angle and (1 ± tan (θ 1)) is the gradient factor, θ 2 is the steering angle and (1 ± tan (θ 2)) is the steering factor.
It should be noted that, since the two driving modules 1 of the present invention operate independently of each other, the gain values obtained by the two driving modules 1 are different in steering. Next, the above-described "differential control" will be described below by taking two examples.
For example, when the autonomous moving apparatus Z with a weight of 300kg makes a left turn of 10 degrees (the steering angle θ 2 is 10 degrees) on a right-inclined slope with a slope of 10 degrees (the inclination angle θ 1 is 10 degrees), the weight factor of the left driving module 1 is (300/500) =0.6, the slope factor is (1 +) tan (10)) =1.176 (since a left turn is performed on the right-inclined slope relative to the motor 12, the slope factor is increased), the steering factor is (1-tan (10)) =0.823 (since the motor 12 of the left driving module 1 needs to output a smaller torque when the left turn is performed, the steering factor is decreased), and thus the overall gain of the left driving module 1 is 0.6 × 1.176 × 0.823, that is, the control module 5 may calculate the first current control signal for the left driving module 1 according to the signal gain function, and output the second current control signal after the gain addition: l2= L1 × 0.58; on the other hand, similarly, when the autonomous moving apparatus Z with a weight of 300kg makes a left turn of 10 degrees on a right-inclined slope with a slope of 10 degrees, the weight factor of the right driving module 1 is (300/500) =0.6, the slope factor is (1 + tan (10)) =1.176 (since the motor 12 needs to output a larger torque when making a left turn on the right inclined slope, the slope factor is increased), the steering factor is (1 + tan (10)) =1.176 (since the motor 12 of the right driving module 1 needs to output a larger torque when making a left turn, the steering factor is increased), and therefore the overall gain of the right driving module 1 is 0.6 × 1.176=0.83, that is, the control module 5 may calculate the first current control signal for the right driving module 1 according to the signal gain function, and output the second current control signal after the gain addition: l2= L1 × 0.83.
For example, when the autonomous moving apparatus Z with a weight of 700kg makes a left turn of 10 degrees (the steering angle θ 2 is 10 degrees) on a left-inclined slope with a slope of 15 degrees (the inclination angle θ 1 is 15 degrees), the weight factor of the left driving module 1 is (700/500) =1.4, the slope factor is (1-tan (15)) =0.732 (the slope factor is adjusted down because the motor needs to output a smaller torque force when making a left turn on the left-inclined slope as compared to the motor, and the steering factor is (1-tan (10)) = 0.823) (the motor 12 of the left driving module 1 needs to output a smaller torque force when making a left turn, and the steering factor is adjusted down), so that the overall gain of the left driving module 1 is 1.4 × 0.732 × 0.823 0.84, that is, the control module 5 may calculate the first current control signal for the left driving module 1 according to the signal gain function, and then output the second current control signal after the gain addition: l2= L1 × 0.84; on the other hand, similarly, when the autonomous moving apparatus Z with a weight of 700kg makes a left turn of 10 degrees (the steering angle θ 2 is 10 degrees) on a left-inclined slope with a slope of 15 degrees (the inclination angle θ 1 is 15 degrees), the weight factor of the right driving module 1 is (700/500) =1.4, the slope factor is (1-tan (15)) =0.732 (because a left turn is made on the left-inclined slope, the motor 12 needs to output a smaller torque force relatively, and the slope factor is adjusted downward), the steering factor is (1 tan (10)) =1.176 (because the motor 12 of the right driving module 1 needs to output a larger torque force relatively, and the slope factor is adjusted upward), and therefore the overall gain of the right driving module 1 is 1.4 × 0.732 × 1.176=1.2, that is, the control module 5 can calculate the first current control signal for the right driving module 1 according to the above signal gain function, and then output the second current control signal after the gain: l2= L1 × 1.2.
However, the above-mentioned examples are only one possible embodiment and are not intended to limit the present invention.
